Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

His name is Ta You, or rather, her!

The gray-white long hair swirled behind her, those withered strands devoid of life, as if they would turn into dust in the next instant...

She is merely the continued will of the Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness, more precisely, she is but a shred of determination, a shred of determination to save the world...

She was born a human, yet without gender!

She is heartless and thoughtless, devoid of desires or needs, though she has a human face and a human shell, her existence from the very beginning was destined, her existence is solely to fulfill the mission of her existence...

In the Cold Pond, the waters are bone-chillingly cold, sitting idly for over ten years as if it were a day, Ta You has grown accustomed to it, as if those ice-cold waters weren’t washing over her body...

”What did you do? To make her willingly bind her heart’s sea, refusing to wake? My Divine Residence...”

Maintaining the posture of gazing at the moon, Ta You softly murmured, and then, the crystal ball filled with fragmented memories in her palm slowly disappeared, merging into her mind...

In just an instant, brilliance flowed...

Atop the Astrolabe Platform at the peak of the Star Innate Tower, Ta You continued to gaze at the moon, amidst the seemingly eternally unchanging brilliance of the stars and moon, scene after scene flowed continuously...

Gu Changsheng witnessed all kinds of ancient memories, Gu Changsheng fleetingly encountered and bid farewell to the Ancient Wilderness in her mind, all those scenes and images continuously played out among the stars on the Astrolabe Platform...

And Ta You, who had been watching all this, from the original calmness and normalcy to ultimate shock, and finally, overpowering anger began to gather in the depths of her eyes...

”You actually met her! You actually dared to violate the cosmic rules set by the Ancestral God, alter history, disturb time and space, just to meet her! Ancient Wilderness, my Divine Residence, how do you have the face to meet her and still behave with such deep passion and righteousness?”

Speaking of this, Ta You’s small face revealed a nearly insane expression, almost hysterically lowly roaring, ”How can you be like this? How can you do this? I actually forgot, you are the Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness, the Moon Goddess Posuo, the god holding the light in the world’s darkness, I actually forgot, you represent hope and the future...”

”You predicted all of this today long ago, predicted that she might not follow your expectations, predicted how the future would unfold, didn’t you? So, you left these sealed memories of the Ancient Wilderness Times, just waiting for her arrival to awaken these memories, to open the opportunity for your reverse time and space journey!”

A tear trickled down from Ta You’s eye, her snow-like pale face was filled with boundless compassion and self-mockery, maintaining the posture of gazing at the moon, but the small hands hidden under her white clothes already had veins protruding, her entire small body trembling violently...

”Ancient Wilderness, my Divine Residence, you are too ruthless! For the all heavens you are determined to guard, for the people you love dearly, you can go to such an extent, you even utililized your daughter’s last bit of tender affection! I thought you were just the world’s most ruthless Venerable Mother, but I was wrong, you are indeed the most ruthless Venerable Mother in this world, in all heavens! Is this the ultimate meaning of me waiting for her? You want to leave these memories of you two meeting as mother and daughter, to let you become the one she cannot bear to neglect, the one she misses the most? To let her willingly guard everything you wish to protect?”

As Ta You spoke, tears flowed again from her eyes, grief overwhelmed her...

”I thought she was another me in this world, but I was wrong, how could she be another me in this world? She is far more miserable than me!”

”Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness, I am ashamed to be your continued will, if I could do it over, I would rather have never existed! Just like Gu Changsheng said, you shelter all heavens, love all people, but when have you ever loved yourself, when have you ever loved us?”

”You interrogate the Ancestral God, but have you ever sincerely asked yourself, sought within yourself, the Ancestral God entrusted you with protecting all heavens, at least he did it openly and honestly, but you? You exhaust every effort to guard all heavens, shelter the people you love dearly, but what have you done? You even exploited the last bit of tender affection she had for you, yet dare appear before her, what face do you have to face her?”

Spewing these words, Ta You, sitting in the Cold Pond, slowly stood up...

Her frail frame beneath the boundless night sky appeared so insignificant and weak, as if she would collapse in the next moment...

Yet she shook her head, muttering with self-reproach, ”You have no face to face her, I have no face to face her, my Divine Residence, as your continued will, as your determination, I have no face to face her either...”

At this moment, the Holy Envoy Child kneeling by the Cold Pond, ready to serve at any moment, was already shocked!

What did he see?

What did he hear?

Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness, Gu Changsheng turned out to be the daughter of the Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness!

The scenes playing among the stars, the Holy Envoy Child saw clearly, not missing a single detail, and those heart-stirring scenes made the Holy Envoy Child’s small body tremble!

Especially watching his master stand up from the Cold Pond, the Holy Envoy Child’s heart instantly twisted tightly, rushing over in panic, shouting hoarsely, ”Holy Master! You cannot come out! You cannot come out! You will die if you leave the Moon God Pool! You will die!”

No!

More accurately, he will die sooner or later even if he does not leave the Moon God Pool!

But his master has been sitting in the Moon God Pool for fifteen years, and the Holy Envoy Child always thought his master would continue sitting idly like this, until time ends, at the end of ages, but now, he stood up!

The uneasy premonition lurking in the Holy Envoy Child’s heart suddenly became increasingly clear...

His master had said that his mission for existence was to wait for Gu Changsheng...

”Holy Master! Holy Master! Gu Changsheng has not yet ascended to the tower’s peak, you have not yet met her! How can you leave the Moon God Pool, Holy Master, sit down, quickly sit down!” His master, the mission is not yet completed, should not leave the Moon God Pool, should not die like this!

The Holy Envoy Child suddenly became bewildered.

”I can no longer face her, nor do I need to wait to see her. My life’s mission to wait for her is complete. More accurately, it’s Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness, my Divine Residence; her plan has been fulfilled, and there is no need for me to see her anymore...”

The memory fragments flowing through the starry sky vanished, slowly coalescing into a crystal ball, which fell back into Ta You’s hands...

Ta You looked at the crystal ball, faintly warm in the palm of her hand, her pale little face filled with melancholy...

Ah, Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness...

As the Divine Residence representative of hope and the future, how could she fail to foresee all that has transpired?

Certainly, she predicted that one day I would develop thoughts, that I would act to obstruct Gu Changsheng, that I would use those sealed Ancient Wilderness memory fragments to threaten Gu Changsheng, forcing him back...

And what she waited for was this moment, this instant, this memory crystal ball to form!

Suddenly, Ta You felt that the memory crystal ball in her palm weighed like a thousand pounds, scalding like fire, making her heart ache...

”Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness, my Divine Residence, if... if leaving this memory is your ultimate purpose, then, what if I disregard your will and destroy it?”

Saying this, a hint of resoluteness flashed in Ta You’s eyes...

Destroy it!

Destroy the memories of Ancient Wilderness and Gu Changsheng’s encounter; perhaps that’s the last thing she, Ta You, can do for that pitiable child...

Pale golden divine power continuously emanated from Ta You’s palm, bombarding the memory crystal ball...

”Boom!”

”Boom!”

”...”

The sound of divine power shattering seemed to tear the surrounding space apart, emitting a series of piercing roars...

Yet, the memory crystal ball in Ta You’s palm remained unbroken under such divine bombardment...

And Ta You’s small face became progressively paler from the exertion of divine power...

But she was not willing to give up!

She didn’t want to give up!

Destroy it!

Destroy this memory!

This is the last thing she can do for Gu Changsheng!

Endless divine power continuously attacked the memory crystal ball from Ta You’s palm; Ta You seemed to be throwing her life away, attacking desperately...

But everything was futile!

”Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness! You malicious Venerable Mother! You really intend to preserve it! You really intend to preserve it!”

Gazing at the memory crystal ball, unharmed in her palm, Ta You’s small body slumped into the Moon God Pool, the splashed ice-cold water reflecting on her face like waves...

The memory fragments of Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness constitute a binding; even Ta You, as the will’s extension of the Ancient Wilderness, cannot erase them...

If they cannot be erased, then this memory crystal ball will continue to exist...

Until...

Until it returns anew to Gu Changsheng’s memory!

No!

That is not the scene Ta You wishes to witness; Gu Changsheng is already pitiful enough, even more so than herself. How could she allow him to be used so thoroughly...

”Holy Master! Holy Master, what are you trying to do! Holy Master, don’t scare Tongtong, Tongtong is timid!” The Holy Envoy Child gazed at their master, seemingly descending into madness, eyes brimming with tears, the small figure kneeling on the edge of the Moon God Pool, trembling, kowtowing, praying...

”Tongtong, my mission is complete; all that my Divine Residence desires has ultimately been granted. All my struggles are in vain; my Tongtong, I am about to die...”
